Ottawa finalizes ban on menthol cigarettes, other tobacco products

Saturday, April 08, 2017

The federal government has finalized the ban on menthol-flavoured tobacco products, including cigarettes, blunt wraps and most cigars.

Ottawa first restricted the sale of products with flavours such as bubblegum and chocolate, before expanding it to include menthol-flavoured products, in an attempt to reduce the appeal of smoking to youth.

According to Health Canada, data shows that a “significant number” of young people smoke menthol cigarettes.

A number of provinces have already banned menthol cigarettes, including Nova Scotia and Alberta.

The Canada-wide ban will be rolled out and enforced over the next six months.
